  1. I just coded a new page on the site for nothing but Dell coupons:

     

    http://www.gottadeal.com/dell.php

     

    Rather that add them to our standard coupon database, it's a little easier to do it this way because of the different restrictions Dell puts on their coupons (expiration times during the middle of the day, maximum number of uses, etc...).

     

    We usually get informed of upcoming coupons a few days in advance, so now I can just throw them in the database right then, and once they go live, they will automatically be on that page with all the corresponding details.

     

    I was going to save this feature for our next site design, but with all the great deals at Dell lately, I thought it would be better to get the page up now. In the future we'll probably add something where you can be notified via e-mail when new coupons go live, but for now, just bookmark it and we'll link to it somewhere on the main site.

  2. I just checked and Dell is already giving 25-30% off most of their "good" systems, so you won't be saving much if at all with the coupons.

     

    The best time to buy is when you can use the coupon with a system that has a mail-in rebate. That way you get both discounts. This is similar to what I did with my laptop. They had a $500 off coupon and a $200 rebate so I got both. When they already reduce prices by a certain %, 99% of the $-off coupons don't stack.

  3. The only coupon I know of this weekend is:

     

    $300 off and free shipping with select online Dimension Desktops priced at $899+ using coupon code XB8$9D8VJ9VS94.

     

    Keep in mind that the $300 coupon will cancel out any %-off discount a system might already have. But you might be able to configure something right around $900 and the coupon will then take 33% off which isn't too bad if you have to buy today.

  4. DELL HOME OFFICE

     

    $500 off and free shipping with select online Inspiron 8600, 700m, 600m, 6000, 1150, and 1000 Notebooks $1399+

    Coupon Code: 8WQ59398KXR61$ Expires 2/22/05 at 5:59am CT

     

    $600 off and free shipping with select online Inspiron 8600, 700m, 600m, 6000, 1150, and 1000 Notebooks $1599+

    Coupon Code: SBX6W2MR419KS7 Expires 2/22/05 at 5:59am CT

     

    $300 off and free shipping with select online Dimension Desktops $899+

    Coupon Code: XB8$9D8VJ9VS94 Expires 2/22/05 at 5:59am CT

  5. Keep in mind that pretty much all 17" and 19" LCDs have the same resolution (1280x1024) so unless your eyesight isn't that great, you might want to save $100-150 and go with the 17" since both will give you the same amount of screen real estate. You should be able to get a 17" model for anywhere from $199-249 depending on brand/quality.

     

    Of course another option is to go for the Dell 2001FP for around $530 the next time it goes on sale with a coupon at Dell.

     

    Here are some good options at Amazon:

  6. Both are very good deals - Buy.com seems to be the cheapest for both models on Pricegrabber.

     

    It's probably worth the extra $10 get to with the Pro version, although besides USB 2.0 I don't see much of a difference, and I don't know if having 2.0 will make any difference anyway.

  7. Geeks.com has a 10% off coupon code MC Exclusives but it excludes Geek Specials (which this is). If you use this coupon code on another product you may have to pay with a MasterCard credit card.

    Or you can use 10% off coupon code GOTTADEAL and use any payment method you want :) But like the other coupon, it can't be used on Geek Specials.

  8. According to TiVo's site, there are 2 revisions of this model. The first (A) works with pretty much any TiVo, the (B) revision works with later models (if your TiVo service number starts with 230, 240, 264, 275, 540, 565, 590 or 595):

    You can also use the 10% off coupon if you order by 2pm EST to get it for $19.79 plus shipping.
